Abstract

The small hydropower uses hydraulic power to generate electricity, which one of the future energy resources of the power industry. The tubular turbine which uses in the city water pipe lines's differential pressure electricity is produced, this structure is simple, and therefore advantageous. The effects of cavitation that occurs in the turbine is researched, By using CFD we analysed the flow pattern inside the turbine. As a result, we found out to become the performance fall of turbine.
